What must the SOR POC do after preparing the SOR package?

The appropriate action for the SOR Point of Contact (POC) after preparing the SOR package involves delivering it to the applicant. This step is essential because the SOR package contains crucial information related to the applicant’s security clearance. Providing this package to the applicant allows them to be aware of the information being submitted on their behalf and enables them to address any concerns that may arise in relation to their security screening process. It fosters transparency and ensures that applicants can engage in their own verification processes if necessary.

The other actions suggested, such as submission to the local command or review with a supervisor, involve procedural steps not immediately following the package preparation. Filing the package until needed is counterproductive, as it does not incorporate the applicant into the process, which is vital for successful personnel security practices.
